8/30 for me today please. Not tempted at all atm, as I have a sore mouth - I think as a result of having to breath through my mouth during this gunky cold.What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?3

6/21 and an early declare as had a very late night last night so it will be 7/21 as I need a very early night tonight.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!3 -

Don't worry @BudgetingBelinda, it does get easier over time. Why not try going for Monday to Thursday AF. It's what works for me. 🤔
4/10 AFDs please@cathybird3 -
Yes I think Mon, Tues, Weds should be the best days as they are my no spend days! And so if I don’t have any I won’t break a no spend day just to get some! Also co-insisting with my grocery budget and plan there is not the funds. I wish you well on your AFD! 👏🏼👏🏼maman said:Don't worry @BudgetingBelinda, it does get easier over time.
